Helping to Identify Auxiliary units.

Post by Kerensky »

How about giving them a different naming convention. Think that'll help people at all?

For example, instead of following the current system of # UNIT TYPE

We say AUX #(+100) UNIT TYPE.

Why? Do they need help?? Maybe in the beginning they feel a little lost, but I'm sure the doubts don't last for long.

It's one of the most common complaints.

I didn't distinguish them either in the beginning. But only in the first two gameplays.
And on that time, probably they won't even notice the written AUX, IMO.

Plain text is also important for color blind gamers.

Hmm.
That's a good point.

I see.
It could be also:

(A)110th Panzer IIIJ

*100th Panzer IIIJ

But none is elegant.
